Wow, what's with all this news popping up tonight? Great video, nice choice to make it black and white. Also, something pretty interesting in the video is the last footage right before the end, the arm sticking up, is clearly a white arm. In my opinion this shows how this disaster affected us just as much as it did the Haitians.

Happy Birthday, oh mighty one! Best wishes to The Glue!

Happy Birthday, Phoenix!!!! Much respect.

One Step Closer from Auburn 07 or w/ Jonathan Davis from PR 04 Given Up from Montreal 08 P5hing Me A*Wy from Live In Texas The Little Things Give You Away from Atlanta 07 New Divide from Macao 09 Bleed It Out from East Troy 08 Faint from Denver 07 that's all I can think of right now....

Nice.

Damn.....sorry for starting all this.

..what? I was just describing her.

That last performance with Jamie Foxx and T-Pain was a goddamn mess though. My god, it was such a lip synced disaster. Random fat black woman coming on and dancing? Why the hell was Slash there? And then Justin Bieber failing horribly...getting Beyonce and Bon Jovi confused...

Damn, I don't get it. I know it's important to take their time and come out with the best stuff they can, but come on. They said they wanted to get more music out faster, and they are doing that with New Divide, LPU9, & Not Alone, but it really shouldn't take this long to make a record. A lot of musical artists release their best work in a short amount of time.

Haha good to see the guys enjoying themselves. Chester got back to the States pretty quickly.

I'm praying this is just a joke.

Good to see Mike rapping like that again.

This was just a joke that Brad made. Don't take it too seriously.

I know this is sort of a pointless topic and I don't mean to intrude on the band's personal lives but this is just something I've noticed... Everyone in the band (besides Chester) doesn't really talk much about their families. I mean Chester is always seen around with Talinda and she's there like, all the time with DBS. All the other guys don't talk about their wives or anything of that sort at all. Again, lame topic, I know...just felt like putting my thought out there.

From Mike's blog: I started using iGoogle a few months ago, and I think it’s great. It’s a customizable home page, where you can just get the updates you want to get when you open your computer, like CNN top news, Facebook, Twitter, or Youtube top videos. You also customize the “look” of your page. They’ve got Michael Kors, Radiohead, Paul Frank, Dave Matthews Band, Shepard Fairey, and many others…well, iGoogle has a new theme available that I thought some of you might like to use…the MIKE SHINODA GLORIOUS EXCESS theme. Go here to see or use it: http://www.google.com/ig/directory?type=th...st_mshinoda.xml Enjoy.

This is hilarious.

Emo pop? This is one of the more rock style songs though....weird. Interesting choice of a single...

Why isn't this on the front page? Happy Birthday Rob!!! His shining moment is of course whenever he does his amazing drum solos for Bleed It Out. Cut your hair though, Rob...please?

You know, thinking about it, Linkin Park is a lot like Slipknot in a sense. Hybrid Theory was their first album, and with that album they came out with a unique sound that was all their own and hooked people right away. Slipknot did this exact same thing with their self-titled debut. Meteora showed that they could replicate that sound and make it even better the second time around. Slipknot did the same thing with Iowa. Minutes to Midnight was the result of LP's experimentation with redefining their sound and making something new. Slipknot's Vol:3 was like that too, they actually had ballads and not so heavy songs. And both of those albums were recorded in the same mansion. Slipknot's fourth album, All Hope Is Gone, was a nice combination of their experimental stuff from Vol:3 and their original heavy sound from their first two albums. And I honestly think it has ended up being their best record yet. I can see Linkin Park doing the same thing with their upcoming fourth album.

People who are afraid that this is what the new album will sound like have no reason to think that.....this was a MINUTES TO MIDNIGHT demo that they put lyrics and vocals to.

Man, there is no way of telling how this album is gonna turn out haha. They've said so many different things on it by this point. The only thing that has remained consistent is that they say it won't sound like anything else before it.

So finally got the album. Great listen, the new song is awesome, very mellow and slightly beautiful, definitely fits the cause. I'm positive it was a demo for the upcoming album. Love all the other songs too. Never Let Me Down is pretty badass, the Lupe track is sweet, Hoobastank are in top form, and you can't go wrong with Dave Matthews Band. The thing is, I got Heroes by Peter Gabriel. Anybody got the mp3 of Make Tomorrow Today?

Mike on the song: Barely a week after tragedy hit Haiti in the form of a massive earthquake, Linkin Park has stepped forward to help the country's struggling residents with Download to Donate for Haiti, an ambitious project featuring new music from some of the industry's top musicians. On Tuesday, we caught up with Mike Shinoda, who is currently working overtime to turn his musical talents into much-needed relief. "Download to Donate has come together very, very quickly," Shinoda explained of the project, featuring brand-new music that can now be downloaded in exchange for a donation to Haiti relief efforts. "It was an idea as of Thursday — and as of right now, we have nine songs up." Shinoda plans to add more tracks in the upcoming days — each from a major act who donated their track in response to the January 12 earthquake. "We ask that you donate, but you don't have to — if all you can afford is to spread the word, embed the widget, share it on Facebook, Twitter, whatever, then that will be good enough," explained the rapper/ songwriter/ guitarist for Linkin Park, whose new track "Not Alone" is offered alongside contributions from Peter Gabriel, Alanis Morissette, Dave Matthews Band and more. "We're hoping to raise a lot of money for a lot of people who need it in Haiti." "We had a demo [for 'Not Alone'] — the music was laid out, we had done the song a little while ago ... we just never used it because we never thought it was done," Shinoda remembered of the origins of their track. "[After the tragedy in Haiti], we listened to the demo again, essentially scrapped all the words, rewrote the words ... when you've got that idea and emotional charge in you and you put that in the lyrics, for me it does make better lyrics." Those lyrics include, "I break down/ Fear is sinking in/ The cold comes/ Racing through my skin/ Searching for a way to get to you/ Through the storm you go, giving up your home/ Go, leaving all you've known/ You are not alone." "There's an authenticity and a passion that you can hear in Chester's voice on this track; we literally wrote [the new lyrics] via e-mail, before he had flown out from Arizona to L.A. [to record them]," Shinoda said. Part of the remarkable speed behind their reaction to Haiti, Shinoda added, can be attributed to a philanthropic groundwork the band has had in place for a half-decade. "We started our organization, Music for Relief, back in 2005 after the tsunami in South Asia," he explained. "Music for Relief's goal is to provide relief, funds and awareness in the wake of natural disasters ... this is the first time that the technology has been available to do something like this; just a few years ago, it wouldn't be possible for artists to turn around songs so quickly, in a matter of days." Shinoda hopes fans will keep their ears — and their hearts — open for more, as he plans to upload additional tracks in the days to come. "By the way, I should say that Music for Relief [donates] 100 percent of the funds," he added. "We're just a conduit; everybody's working for free and everybody's working hard."

Okay, seriously. I really want this album. It hasn't been working for me all day. Could somebody PLEASE PM it to me? Not to sound....I don't know, like a broken record I guess. I just really don't have a way of getting it.
